Absorption of Codonopsis pilosula Saponins by Coexisting Polysaccharides Alleviates Gut Microbial Dysbiosis with Dextran Sulfate Sodium-Induced Colitis in Model Mice

Figure 6

Correlations between the fecal microbiota and fecal SCFA concentrations after treatment with Codonopsis pilosula extracts. (a) Positive correlation between the abundance of genera and SCFA concentrations. (b) Negative correlation between the abundance of genera and SCFA concentrations. Fro = fructooligosaccharides group, Cp = Codonopsis pilosula polysaccharide group, Cs = Codonopsis pilosula saponins group, Con = control group, and Mod = DSS-induced colitis group.
